Reigning over the bay: New STS container cranes at Port Elizabeth | Liebherr

Our customer Transnet Port Terminals @Transnet-tptNet has welcomed a new Liebherr STS crane at Port Elizabeth Container Terminal. The ship to shore crane with a 20 m span, 52 m outreach and 19 m back reach will enhance port efficiency, and support key Eastern Cape industries. Located in Algoa Bay, the terminal handles containers, breakbulk, bulk and vehicles, serving as a vital gateway for regional trade. The container section alone has an annual capacity of about 400,000 TEU, with 22 hectares of storage and 5,400 ground slots. Equipped with multiple berths and modern handling equipment, the terminal ensures fast cargo turnaround and smooth operations for local businesses and exports alike. Designed for reliability and performance, the new Liebherr ship to shore crane offers exceptional stability even in strong winds and features advanced anti-sway technology for precise and safe container handling. The ergonomic operator cabin provides comfort and full control, allowing operators to work efficiently during long shifts. With the support from Liebherr-Africa which has a network of service hubs and optimised parts supply, we deliver a solution that combines high performance with long-term reliability and minimal downtime. This powerful STS crane is a significant addition to the terminal, helping to drive modern, efficient, and resilient port operations. ​​#containerhandling #portequipment #maritimecranes Learn more about our ship-to-shore container cranes on our website: https://www.liebherr.com/en-int/maritime-cranes/products/port-equipment/ship-to-shore-container-cranes-5391550 📱 Follow us on our maritime social media channel and stay connected!▬▬▬▬▬ ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LiebherrMaritime ► LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/liebherr-maritime-cranes/ ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/liebherrmaritime/ ► About Liebherr The Liebherr Group is a family-run technology company with a broadly diversified product portfolio, which includes a total of 13 product segments.
